Lennox

Yes I watched that programme. Well for me it's not just about Lennox it's about all dogs. The BSL law does not just apply to Lennox. Perhaps some of the people who fought for him would like to do more for other dogs especially staffys in pounds and rescues. Lennox isn't the first dog this has happened to and he sure as hell won't be the last.
 
I also watched that programme and it filled me with sadness, the Save Lennox campaign are fighting to stop this sort of thing happening ie getting a change in the law. I think with the Save Lennox it united lots of groups fighting for change in order to get a louder voice, I dont see anything wrong with that.
 
Me neither DobieGirl. If it took that to bring this law to the general publics attention and change can take place due to that, then I see that as a positive thing. For me Lennox is not just
One dog, he is my dog, my friends dog or anyone's dog. It could be anyone's dog next. Some people struggle to grasp this concept thou .... Until its theirs dogs turn!

The whole campaign was about one dog !! And this thread and all the facebook messages, petitions etc etc. It was all about saving Lennox not all the others. There was a tv programme recently where they showed the police removing pitbull type dogs out of council flats where they were often recieving little or no care. They were held for a short time, often showing themselves to be loving friendly dogs despite their neglect and then pts as it's illegal to try and rehome them. I don't remember any uproar at all about that. Joe Public just loves a good sob story, everybody, well almost averybody cared about Lennox !

The whole campaign was about Lennox, but it has also highlighted the shower of 5hit that is the DDA. Bull types are the a la mode dog for those requiring a 'tough looking' dog presently. Previously it was Rotties, prior to that it was GSD. It's the morons with the low IQ and a need to impress other morons that need dealing with. It's also the morons who continue to breed these bull types as a nice little earner for their fellow below average intellligence customer that need to be sorted out too.
 
At the end of the day, yes the campaign was about one dog. However, it was the catalyst that brought issues to the wider public, as is so often the case.
